I like to take maybe one or two photos a show, discreetly as possible.
Learned a long time ago that there are so many better photos and vids available after the fact if I want one that there's really no need.

I record when the lights go down into the first minute of opening song and final bows. Nothing between.

If you're in a smaller venue I think you should record the whole show with your phone. Would've loved to seen phone recordings of Echoplex 2013 or Kraft Show 2016. Or the upcoming Kraft Show.

Yes if any real Stones fans gets to see the Kraft show, they should record it! Even if that means discreetly recording the audio with your phone at waist level.

I just record audio and DO NOT use a phone to do it. The people next to me have no clue what I am doing unless they try to talk to me.

I always go to setlistfm website to check out a band's setlist, which is pretty much identical show to show. If I want to video a certain favourite song I know when it's coming up. McCartney Live and Let Die with all the pyro and Hey Jude for a stadium sing a long. R'n'R All Night from KISS for all the pyro/lasers.
These days no one holds lighters in the air like we used to do, everyone holds their phones up!

Am curious. How does Jack White have all phone pouches unlock immediately after the show ends? On another note, why don't the performers just ask folks to put their phones away and flick their Bics at the end of the show? Am sure many here flicked a Bic more than once in their time.

As you leave the venue, they swipe the pouch over a magnet.
